Muscular System
Review - Three Types of Muscle Tissues
Skeletal Muscle• usually attached to bones• under conscious control (voluntary)• striated• multinucleated
Smooth Muscle• walls of most viscera, blood vessels, skin• not under conscious control• not striated
Cardiac Muscle• wall of heart• not under conscious control• striated• branched
4
Functions of Muscle• Provide stability and postural tone (skeletal)
– Fixed in place without movement– Maintain posture in space
• Purposeful movement (skeletal)– Perform tasks consciously, purposefully
• Regulate internal organ movement and volume (mostly involuntary - smooth)
• Guard entrances/exits (digestive/urinary – skeletal and smooth)
• Generation of heat (thermogenesis - skeletal)
5
Characteristics of All Muscle Tissue
• Contractile– Ability to shorten (if possible) with force;
exerts tension– CANNOT forcibly lengthen
• Extensible (able to be stretched)
• Elastic (returns to resting length)
• Excitable (can respond electrical impulses)
• Conductive (transmits electrical impulses)
6
Structure of a Skeletal Muscle – Gross/Histological Level
• epimysium (around muscle)
• perimysium (around fascicles)
• endomysium (around fibers, or cells)
Alphabetical order of MUSCLE from largest to smallest: fascicle, fiber, fibril, and filament
Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th edition, 2010

Skeletal Muscle Fiber (Cellular level)
Sarcoplasmic reticulum is like the ER of other cells; but it contains [Ca2+ ]
Transverse or T-tubules contain extracellular fluid ( [Na+], [K+])
Fully differentiated, specialized cell – its structures are given special names
Figure from: Saladin, Anatomy & Physiology, McGraw Hill, 2007
• sarcolemma (plasma membrane)• sarcoplasm (cytoplasm)• sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER)
• transverse tubule (T-tubule)• triad
• cisternae of sarcoplasmic reticulum (2)• transverse, or T-tubule
• myofibril (1-2 µm diam.)
8
Structure of the Sarcomere (Histological Level)
• I band• A band• H zone• Z line• M line
The sarcomere is the contractile unit of skeletal (and cardiac) muscle(~ 2µm long)
Figures From: Marieb & Hoehn, Human Anatomy & Physiology, 9th ed., Pearson, 2013
9
Structure of the Sarcomere (Histological/Molecular Level)
‘A’ in A band stands for Anisotropic (dArk)
‘I’ in I band stands for Isotropic (LIght)
Zones of non-overlap: I band (thin filaments), and H zone (thick filaments)
A sarcomere runs from Z line (disk) to Z line (disk) (From ‘Z’ to shining ‘Z’!)

Preview of Skeletal Muscle Contraction
Major steps:
1. Motor neuron firing
2. Depolarization (excitation) of muscle cell
3. Release of Ca2+ from sarcoplasmic reticulum
4. Shortening of sarcomeres
5. Shortening of muscle/CTs and tension produced

Grasping Physiological Concepts
• The steps in a physiological process give you the ‘when’, i.e. tell you when things happen and/or the order in which they happen.
• For each step in a process, you should MUST ask yourself the following questions - and be sure you get answers!– How? (How does it happen?)
– Why? (Why it happens and/or why it’s important?)
– What? (What happens?)
See Figures 9.7 and 9.8 in your textbook for excellent overall summaries of the muscle contraction process
13
Sliding Filament Theory
Theory used to explain these observations is called the sliding filament theory
…

14
Myofilaments (Molecular Level)
Thin Filaments• composed of actin• associated with troponin and tropomyosin
Thick Filaments • composed of myosin• cross-bridges

Mechanism of Sarcomere Contraction
When you think myosin, think mover:
1. Bind
2. Move3. Detach4. Reset
Ca2+ troponin
myosin actin

Mechanism of Sarcomere Contraction1. Bind
2. Move3. Detach
4. Reset
What would happen if ATP was not present?
Cycle repeats about 5 times/secEach power stroke shortens sarcomere by about 1%So, each second the sarcomere shortens by about 5%

Neuromuscular Junction
• site where axon and muscle fiber communicate• motor neuron• motor end plate• synaptic cleft• synaptic vesicles• neurotransmitters
The neurotransmitter for initiating skeletal muscle contraction is acetylcholine (ACh)

Stimulus for Contraction: Depolarization• nerve impulse causes release of acetylcholine (ACh) from synaptic vesicles
• ACh binds to acetylcholine receptors on motor end plate
• generates a muscle impulse
• muscle impulse eventually reaches sarcoplasmic reticulum (via T tubules) and Ca2+ is released
• acetylcholine is destroyed by the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE)
Linking of nerve stimulation with muscle contraction is called excitation-contraction coupling (See Fig 9.11 in textbook)

5. Contraction Cycle begins
21
Modes of ATP Synthesis During Exercise
Continual shift from one energy source to another rather than an abrupt change
Muscle stores enough ATP for about 4-6 seconds worth of contraction, but is the only energy source used directly by muscle. So, how is energy provided for prolonged contraction?
Figures From: Marieb & Hoehn, Human Anatomy & Physiology, 9th ed., Pearson, 2013
22
Energy Sources for Contraction
Figures From: Marieb & Hoehn, Human Anatomy & Physiology, 9th ed., Pearson, 2013
myoglobin stores extra oxygen so it can rapidly supply muscle when needed
(Creatine-P)
23
Oxygen Debt (Excess Post Exercise O2 Consumption – EPOC)
• when oxygen is not available
• glycolysis continues
• pyruvic acid converted to lactic acid (WHY?)
• liver converts lactic acid to glucose
(The Cori Cycle)
EPOC - amount of extra oxygen needed by liver to convert lactic acid to glucose, resynthesize creatine-P, make new glycogen, and replace O2 removed from myoglobin.
Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th edition, 2010
24
Muscle Fatigue
• Inability to maintain force of contraction although muscle is receiving stimulus to contract
• Commonly caused by • decreased blood flow• ion imbalances• accumulation of lactic acid• relative (not total) decrease in ATP availability• decrease in stored ACh
• Cramp – sustained, involuntary contraction
25
Length-Tension Relationship
Maximum tension in striated muscle can only be generated when there is optimal (80-100%) overlap between myosin and actin filaments
Figures From: Marieb & Hoehn, Human Anatomy & Physiology, 9th ed., Pearson, 2013
26
Muscular ResponsesThreshold Stimulus
• minimal strength required to cause contraction in an isolated muscle fiber
Record of a Muscle Contraction = myogram
• latent period• period of contraction• period of relaxation• refractory period• all-or-none response
An individual muscle fiber (cell) is either “on” or “off” and produces maximum tension at that resting length for a given frequency of stimulation
Figure From: Marieb & Hoehn, Human Anatomy & Physiology, 9th ed., Pearson, 2013
27
Treppe, Wave Summation, and Tetanus
• Treppe, Wave Summation, and Tetanus – all involve increases in tension generated in a muscle fiber
after more frequent re-stimulation
• The difference among them is WHEN the muscle fiber receives the second, and subsequent, stimulations:– Treppe – stimulation immediately AFTER a muscle cell
has relaxed completely.
– Wave Summation – Stimulation BEFORE a muscle fiber is relaxed completely
• Incomplete (unfused) tetanus – partial relaxation between stimuli
• Complete (fused) tetanus – NO relaxation between stimuli
28

Tetany is a sustained contraction of skeletal muscle
29
Motor Unit
• single motor neuron plus all muscle fibers controlled by that motor neuron
Figure From: Marieb & Hoehn, Human Anatomy & Physiology, 9th ed., Pearson, 2013
30
Recruitment of Motor Units
• recruitment - increase in the number of motor units activated to perform a task
• whole muscle composed of many motor units
• as intensity of stimulation increases, recruitment of motor units continues, from smallest to largest, until all motor units are activated
31
Sustained Contractions
• smaller motor units recruited first• larger motor units recruited later• produces smooth movements• muscle tone – continuous state of partial contraction
32
Types of Contractions
• isotonic – muscle contracts and changes length
• concentric – shortening contraction
• isometric – muscle “contracts” but does not change length
• eccentric – lengthening contraction
Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th edition, 2010

35
Smooth Muscle Fibers
Compared to skeletal muscle fibers• shorter• single nucleus• elongated with tapering ends• myofilaments organized differently• no sarcomeres, so no striations• lack transverse tubules• sarcoplasmic reticula not well developed• exhibit stress-relaxation response (adapt to new stretch state and relax)
Figure from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
36
Types of Smooth MuscleSingle-unit (unitary) smooth muscle
• visceral smooth muscle• sheets of muscle fibers that function as a group, i.e., a single unit• fibers held together by gap junctions• exhibit rhythmicity• exhibit peristalsis• walls of most hollow organs, blood vessels, respiratory/urinary/ reproductive tracts
Multiunit Smooth Muscle• fibers function separately, i.e., as multiple independent units• muscles of eye, piloerector muscles, walls of large blood vessels
37
Smooth Muscle Contraction• Resembles skeletal muscle contraction
• interaction between actin and myosin• both use calcium and ATP• both depend on impulses
• Different from skeletal muscle contraction• smooth muscle lacks troponin• smooth muscle depends on calmodulin • two neurotransmitters affect smooth muscle
• acetylcholine and norepinephrine• hormones affect smooth muscle• have gap junctions• stretching can trigger smooth muscle contraction (but briefly, then relaxation again occurs)• smooth muscle slower to contract and relax• smooth muscle more resistant to fatigue• smooth muscle can undergo hyperplasia, e.g., uterus
38
Cardiac Muscle
• only in the heart• muscle fibers joined together by intercalated discs• fibers branch• network of fibers contracts as a unit (gap junctions)• self-exciting and rhythmic• longer refractory period than skeletal muscle (slower contract.)• cannot be tetanized• fatigue resistant• has sarcomeres
